Critics Consensus: Grease 2 is undeniably stocked with solid songs and well-choreographed dance sequences, but there's no getting around the fact that it's a blatant retread of its far more entertaining predecessor.

The singing, dancing and staging isn't memorable in Grease 2. It's just imaginative and energetic enough to keep you interested. The same can be said for the whole film.
This movie just recycles Grease, without the stars, without the energy, without the freshness and without the grease.
I don't mean to deny the self-evident second-rateness of the project, just to suggest that it's preferable to the third-rateness that has become the norm in the genre.
Grease is most emphatically not the word this summer.
Grease 2 is the most serendipitous sequel in recent memory. It is an ingratiating, jubilant improvement on a crummy original.
Where this film has a decided edge on its predecessor is in the staging and cutting of the musical sequences.
Aimless and horribly dull, with its vigorous group dances failing to compensate for the insipid songs.
It doesn't work, but you could spend the time spotting relatives of the stars.
Definitely of the so-bad-it's-almost-good genre, this kinda stands the test of time in a camp way, mainly because of the charm of Pfeiffer and Carrington.
As a sequel to "Grease" it's terrible, and as a musical on its own merits, it's absolutely abysmal.
Rizzo says "no" to this hacky sequel.
A gloriously unpretentious gem just waiting to be discovered. That the film hasn't yet received the full respect it deserves only adds to its charm.
In an attempt to topple its predecessor, Grease 2 fails to concoct even a remotely decent storyline. The progressive, incoherent plot and faltering chemistry only taints the name of this famed musical. Arguably one the worse, if not, the worst sequel in the history of film. .5/5
Super Reviewer
An unnecessary and silly sequel to musical classic, Grease.
A horrible sequel to Grease, a classic musical. This one has very silly songs that don't have anything to do with the story. I hate it.
The music was awful, the plot was thick as oatmeal, and the dialouge felt like cheap vinyl. The only thing they did right was cast Michelle Pfeiffer, who's a decent singer and dancer. Otherwise, there's the whole, "A little piece of me died," thing.
